Residue follows 17-year-old Jack Bishop after his father is abducted and a monster is let loose in his small town. As he looks for his father, he begins to notice that he can see the psychic residue left behind by monsters and murder victims. Along with the mind-reading Alexandra (Alex) Courtney, Jack uses his growing ESP abilities to stop the deaths in the town, and find out why his father was taken. Written in the vein of works such as Jonathan Maberry's YA Rot & Ruin series, though with supernatural horror and paranormal subject matter, Residue is book #1 in a new series about Jack Bishop, as written by acclaimed debut author and founder of Elitist Book Review, Steve Diamond.
